Hello there, welcome to NewsHour from the BBC World Service.
We're coming to you live from London and I'm Sean Lay.
Later in the programme we 're going to catch up with the Artemis II moon mission with the former head of NASA
and we 'll get reaction from a British rabbi over the anti-Semitism allegations towards Ye or Kanye West
as he used to be known that 's led to the singer being denied entry to the UK.

reopens the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping could just be social media hyperbole.

A whole civilisation will die tonight, never to be brought back again.
I don't want that to happen, but it probably will.

Who knows?
We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the world.
